Well we went out to a marsh that we lease at about 7:45. We went there last night to scout and we saw tons of ducks. We had all the decoys and everything set-up by 8:45 and and here is the result. Three of us went out and all three of us got limits. We ended up with 6 mallards(5 drakes,1 hen), 5 woodies (3 drakes,2 hens), and 7 BW teal. It was an all around great day(other than the rain) and it was an awesome day spent with my dad and my dads friend. Here are some pics:

Sunday Hunt:
Today was a lot slower than yesterday but my dad and I still manageed to get our limits. We ended up with 8 mallards(6 drakes,2 hens), 2 woodies, and 2 GW teal. The action was early and then it just kinda shut down around 9 so we packed it up with 7 birds in the bag for the morning and then we went out for the afternoon and shot another 5 to finish out our limit. We also got a goose in the a.m.

I didnt get any pictures of the 5 that we killed in the afternoon because I forgot my camera at the house. We ended up killin 30 ducks for the weekend and a goose. Hopefully the rest of the season is like this one.
